Baby thought she really needed that sofa
|
Baby thought she really wanted that dress
|
Baby thought she really had to have two cars
|
Baby thought she really had to say yes
|
But the more she possessed the more she’d slide into death
|
And the more she possessed the less she owned of herself
|
|
Baby thought she really needed that hairstyle
|
Baby thought she really had to say yes
|
Baby really needed acres of carpets
|
Thought she’d be happy if she had larger breasts
|
|
Everybody said you can’t live without them
|
Everybody said you have to say yes
|
So baby spent her everything on this lifestyle
|
But it’s a lifestyle that doesn’t exist
|
|
And the more she possessed the more she’d slide into death
|
And the more she possessed the less she owned of herself
|
|
Yes the more we possess the more we are in debt
|
And the more we possess the less we own of ourselves
|
